. >> mr. romney has diminishing opportunities to turn this race around. is there greater importance on the first debate thanks say, the second and third. does he have to get off on a really strong footing here? >> i expect more people will watch the first debate than the second or third, unless there's some great inflection point in the first debate that draws people's attentions to the second and third debate. the challenge for mitt romney going into this debate is not necessarily to get a hit in on barack obama, but better to communicate with the public why he's best positioned to help them. i think he's had some trouble with that throughout the campaign. i think the video that came out with him talking about 47% of the people being somewhat dependent upon the government, i think that hurt his ability to connect and say to folks i want to be president for all of america. i think he's got an opportunity in this first debate to communicate directly with the public. i won't give him advice, but i would just say i think that's a challenge for him right now.

mr. president? obama: i want to thank you and governor romney. i think it was a terrific debate. i appreciate it. i want to thank the university of denver. you know, four years ago we were going through a major crisis, and yet -- and the reason is because the people. because the woman i met in north carolina who decided to 55 to go back to school because she wanted to inspire her daughter and now has a job from the new training she has gotten. because a company in minnesota who was willing to give up salary and perks for the executives to make sure they didn't layoff workers during a recession. the autoworkers you meet in detroit take such pride in building the best cars in the world not just because of paycheck but because it gives them that sense of pride they're helping to build america. and so the question now is how do we build on the strengths? and everything that i've tried to do and everything i'm now proposing for the next four years in terms of improving our education system or developing american energy or making sure that we're closing loop loopholes for company and f
